Indicator lights and warning
lights
EAU11022
Turn signal indicator light “ ”
This indicator light flashes when a turn
signal light is flashing.
EAU11061
Neutral indicator light “ ”
This indicator light comes on when the
transmission is in the neutral position.
EAU11081
High beam indicator light “ ”
This indicator light comes on when the
high beam of the headlight is switched
on.
EAU11259
Oil level warning light “ ”
This warning light comes on when the
engine oil level is low. To prevent en-
gine damage, replenish the engine oil
as soon as possible.
Even if the oil level is sufficient, the
warning light may flicker when riding on
a slope or during sudden acceleration
or deceleration, but this is not a mal-
function. If a problem is detected in the
oil level detection circuit, the oil level
warning light will flash repeatedly. If this
occurs, have a Yamaha dealer check
the vehicle.TIPWhen the vehicle is turned on, this light
will come on for a few seconds and then go off. If the light does not come
on, or if the light remains on after con-
firming that the oil level is correct (see
page 7-11), have a Yamaha dealer
check the vehicle.
EAU11448
Coolant temperature warning light
“”
This warning light comes on when the
engine is overheating. If this occurs,
stop the engine immediately and allow
the engine to cool.
When the vehicle is turned on, the light
will come on for a few seconds, and
then go off. If the light does not come
on, or if the light remains on, have a
Yamaha dealer check the vehicle. TIP
For vehicles with a radiator fan, the
radiator fan(s) automatically switch
on or off according to the coolant
temperature.

If the engine overheats, see page7-38 for further instructions.

The average fuel consumption display
can be set to either “AVE_ _._ km/L”,
“AVE_ _._ L/100 km” or “AVE_ _._
MPG” (when the display units have
been set to miles:).

“AVE_ _._ km/L”: The average dis-

distance that can be traveled on
1.0 Imp.gal of fuel is shown.To switch between the average fuel
consumption display settings, push the
“SELECT” button for one second.
To reset the average fuel consumption,
select it by pushing the “SELECT” but-
ton. The average fuel consumption dis-
play will flash for a few seconds. While
the display is flashing, push the “RE-
SET” button for one second.
TIPAfter resetting the average fuel con-
sumption, “_ _._” will be shown until thevehicle has traveled 1 km (0.6 mi).

Operation and important riding points
EAU15952
Read the Owner’s Manual carefully to
become familiar with all controls. If
there is a control or function you do not
understand, ask your Yamaha dealer.
WARNING
EWA10272
Failure to familiarize yourself with
the controls can lead to loss of con-
trol, which could cause an accidentor injury.
EAUM3632
TIPThis model is equipped with:
a lean angle sensor. This sensor
stops the engine in case of a vehi-
cle turnover. If this happens, the
engine trouble warning light will
come on, but this is not a malfunc-
tion. Turn the vehicle power off
and then back on again to cancel
the warning light. Failing to do so
will prevent the engine from start-
ing even though the engine will
crank when pushing the start
switch.

an engine auto-stop system. The
engine stops automatically if left
idling for 20 minutes. If the engine
stops, simply push the start switchto restart the engine.
EAU77060
Starting the engineIn order for the ignition circuit cut-off
system to enable starting, one of the
following conditions must be met:
The transmission is in the neutral
position.

The transmission is in gear with
the clutch lever pulled and the sid-
estand up.
See page 4-26 for more informa-
tion.
1. Turn the key to “ON” and make sure that the start/engine stop
switch is set to “ ”.
The following warning lights and
indicator light should come on for a
few seconds, then go off.
Oil level warning light

Coolant temperature warning
light

Engine trouble warning light

Why YamalubeYAMALUBE oil is a Genuine YAMAHA
Part born of the engineers’ passion and
belief that engine oil is an important liq-
uid engine component. We form teams
of specialists in the fields of mechanical
engineering, chemistry, electronics and
track testing, and have them develop
the engine together with the oil it will
use. Yamalube oils take full advantage
of the base oil’s qualities and blend in
the ideal balance of additives to make
sure the final oil clears our performance
standards. Thus, Yamalube mineral,
semisynthetic and synthetic oils have
their own distinct characters and value.
Yamaha’s experience gained over
many years of research and develop-
ment into oil since the 1960’s helps
make Yamalube the best choice for
your Yamaha engine.
EAUS1203
CoolantThe coolant level should be checked
regularly. In addition, the coolant must
be changed at the intervals specified in
the periodic maintenance chart.TIPIf genuine Yamaha coolant is not avail-
able, use an ethylene glycol antifreeze
containing corrosion inhibitors for alu-
minum engines and mix with distilledwater at a 1:1 ratio.
EAU20097
To check the coolant level
Since the coolant level varies with en-
gine temperature, check when the en-
gine is cold.
1. Park the vehicle on a level surface.
2. With the vehicle in an upright posi- tion, look at the coolant level in theRecommended coolant:YAMALUBE coolant
Coolant quantity: Coolant reservoir (max level mark):0.25 L (0.26 US qt, 0.22 Imp.qt)
Radiator (including all routes): 1.93 L (2.04 US qt, 1.70 Imp.qt)
